Hi there!!

[inanna31]

I'm 32 wks 1 day along, now. The physical pains of pregnancy have officially settled in. I just don't remember being in this much pain all the time with my first 3 babies?? My mom said I didn't start complaining with the other ones until much closer to my due date, lol. Ah well, I guess that's why I'm on moderated bed rest.

At my 30 week appt I got

OMG, those cheeks are huge! I might be biased, but I love chubby-cheeked babies :).

[inanna31]

Thank you! I know, I was amazed when I got these done at 30 weeks! I love chubby cheeks too!

You look fabulous! I am also feeling alot of discomfort and pain (especially at night). This is my 3rd pregnancy and I don't remember being this uncomfortable until much later with the previous pregnancies.
I also don't have my bags packed.. my last baby was born at 33 weeks and I almost don't want to jinx things.. as weird as that may sound.
I am 32 weeks.

Thank you! I feel you on the jinx thing. I just feel like if I'm too prepared that either it'll happen too soon, or it'll irritate me that it's not happening when it's supposed to, labor I mean.

Im also in the pregnancy pain boat, my back is killing me..already. lol. Anyway, Im due Nov 4th and I kind of have my bag packed, I threw some toiletries, pjs, slippers & granny panties lol into a bag. & probably a couple more things but I cant remember. This is my first baby so I guess Im just a lil anxious so I threw a couple things into a bag and that kinda made me feel a bit more prepared lol I think in the next few weeks I'll really get my bag together with everything I'll want/need.

I know, seriously, I feel like I'm being split in half. At night I've been getting on my knees but with my face flat on the bed. Staying in that position flexing my back (like a cat) for about 10 minutes or so, has been releiving the pressure enough for me to fall asleep. I'm also hoping it convinces the baby to get head down if I do it enough.

Congrats on your first!! It's so exciting!

[rainbow_fiend]

Thx :) Congrats to you too!

I got nubain in my IV about 25 hours into labor and I was freaking HIGH AS A KITE. It was awesome. I don't plan on doing it again, but I was maxed out on pitocin and it was freaking PAINFUL! It doesn't last long either. :)

[inanna31]

Ugh Pitocin makes the contractions SO FREAKING painful!! I was induced with my first 2 babies. I truly do not want to be induced again. I think at least Nubain helps a bit to deal with the natural contractions, it did with my third baby.

From my experience Nubian is absolutely worthless\

All 3 of my babies were drug free, my biggest being 9lbs 13.5oz

I had my bag mostly packed by 34 weeks or so.

[inanna31]

Oh wow! You're poor vagina... lol. I had an epi for my first two, and went with just nubain on the 3rd one, and I think it helped until time to push. I know that babies of all sizes and weights can be super healthy, but I like having big babies, makes me feel like they are super healthy, you know? I'm weird... I know. but you got me beat big time. My biggest was 8 lb 8oz.

[livinluvinlife]

Lol I will be doing it noooo more. Honestly healing afterwards hurt worse than delivery because she bruised my bones -Fail lol

And fat babies are the greatest! She's 6 months old now and just over 19lbs
